GDT: Game 45: Saturday Jan 18th: Figs @ Habs, 7 PM | CBC, Sportsnet, TVAS

[Tyson]

NHL Network in the US will be broadcasting both Habs games this weekend which means I won't be able to see either game. I will get my play by play from my friends on this site! Thanks in advance

How do I not remember our 1st game of the season
A 1-0 48 save shutout by Monty lol??
Don't remember a SECOND of it, bah

I want this one baaaaaad too
Leafs are in for a lil rude awakening tonight boy
We're playing much different, and much better

Smells like 4-2 W

It’s the game we Rope-a-Doped the Leafs by letting them shoot so much rubber they got exhausted.

I have the same issue, but will be at the US NTDP games this evening and tomorrow afternoon anyway. So, I will have to follow the score on my phone.

We can't win 'em all, and I'm expecting tonight to be a loss. Maybe a point in OT. Honestly... I can live with those results. We're not competing with the Leafs for their playoff spot. I even expect the broadcast crew to be pretty complimentary to the Habs. Montreal's a bigger story than Toronto this season.

I really want to take tomorrow's game against NY. One of the most entitled teams in the league. Last game against them was a travesty of horrible reffing and I wanna' teach them and their fans a lesson.

I would be happy with a 3 point weekend

Important game, let's see how we measure up to these jabronis.

 

[windycity]

DraftKings has a 1.5 over/under on how many pucks get stuck in Matthew's nostrils. I'm taking the over, easy money

Exactly.

My hockey brain's like, "BEAT THE LEAFS!! BEAT THE RAGS!! BEAT EVERY F&%#$@ TEAM!!"

My brain, once the swelling's gone down: "It'll be a great season if we only lose 14-16 more games"

 

[HabzSauce]

I think we're due for a spanking. And I mean WE are the ones doing the spanking.

7-0 Habs you heard it here first

Probably because the vast majority of the game was in the Habs' end, so you just assumed you accidentally watched the highlights from a leafs-centric station.

Or.. OR

One of the keys for the Habs will be to manage Monty's games. Having already played 33 games they will need to keep him fresh. If he is rested he is an outstanding goalie.

 

[Pure Laine]

Maffews has been heating up, so hopefully the Habs don’t pull a Devils and throw tape to tape passes at him half the night

MSL should absolutely be bold and start Dobes

Monty has been good too, and he had an amazing performance vs the Leafs to start the year.

There's no goalie controversy, let's not create one. Both will share the workload, both give a chance to win to this team every night.

Just for giggles, I'm watching select parts of the All or Nothing from 2020-2021 on the Laffs vs Habs playoffs. Any guesses what the Laffs ended up with - All or Nothing? No peeking

 

[The Real Timo]

Start Dobes!!!

I wonder how popular this series is with the leafs fans. I bet many just keep watching it on repeat.

 

[Tyson]

Start Dobes!!!

100% disagree.

 

[GoodKiwi]

Stanley cup or am I'm dissapoint, son.

My body is ready.

I like the part where they're talking to Marner and his GF/finance right before the Habs drop the boom lol

"Off the goal post! Oh no, it's in" LOL

 

[FerrisRox]

Plus Laine said he would like to play for the Leafs before getting drafted. You don't hear many players say that.

I think that had a lot more to do with the Maple Leafs having the first overall pick in his draft than the any sort of affection for a particular team.

 

[The Real Timo]

So the key to tonight's game are: Pezz, Laine going batshit crazy, Arbs dropping nostrils and (since they are likely to start him) Montanbo no playing like a 5'5" goalie.

Exactly.

Stick to your hockey brain.

 

[Habs 4 Life]

f*** the Leafs!! Go Habs Go !!!
